With a marked focus on deals in the $10m-$250m bracket, Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP’s M&A group is valued for its ability to ‘strike a balance between the client’s commercial goals and legal risks’. The sizeable national group draws on over 150 lawyers across the US, which equips it to handle transactions across all key industry sectors, with its recent highlights spanning the technology, healthcare, automotive, and financial services spheres. Columbia-based Gus Dixon co-chairs the department and maintains a broad corporate practice that intersects M&A, private equity, and corporate governance. The group is additionally co-led by Baltimore-based Colleen Pleasant Kline and Atlanta managing partner Michael Hollingsworth, both of whom focus on middle-market M&A. Also noted in Atlanta are William Ching, who chairs the private equity and venture capital group, and Brian Galison, who specializes in M&A involving the TMT, manufacturing, and financial services areas.
